Plant genetic resources represent both the basis for agricultural development and a reservoir of genetic adaptability that acts as a buffer against environmental change. The erosion of these resources threatens world food security. The need to conserve and utilize plant genetic resources as a safeguard against an unpredictable future is well recognized.

Genomics of Plant Genetic Resources
2014Genomics of Plant Genetic Resources presents a state-of-the-art collection of highly interdisciplinary articles describing how genomics improves our capacity to characterize and harness natural and artificially induced variation in order to boost crop productivity and provide consumers with high-quality food. In the past decade, the appreciation of the

Plant genetic resources and genetic erosion
2015Main aim of plant breeding is creation of new genotypes with superior agronomic traits. Genetic difference is base for breeding success and it can be find in plant genetic resources (from wild relatives to breeding material). Plant genetic resources are important for agriculture, nutrition, environment protection, sustainable production, preservation ...

Plant Genetic Resources of Sikkim
NelumboSikkim Himalaya is an unique ecosystem encompassing tropical, temperate and alpine vegetation types. Lepchas and Bhutias consume many native species as subsistence foods at high altitudes. Wild relatives of crop plants like Musa balbisiana, Phoenix rupicola, Mangifera sylvatica, Coffea bengalensis, Camellia kisxi, Malus sikkitnensis, Fragaria ...

Conservation of plant genetic resources
African Journal of Traditional, Complementary and Alternative Medicines, 2004Survey, collection and conservation are important starting points in the genetic resources impact chain and in sustainable environmental protection strategies. Collection of plant genetic resources provides materials for herbaria, field gene banks, seed banks and in vitro conservation which are all important and crucial for characterisation and ...

Conservation of plant genetic resources
Outlook on Agriculture, 1971Higher yields, better quality, easier harvesting, resistance to pests and diseases are a few of the many existing reasons why improved crop varieties are required. Other—as yet unsuspected—needs can arise in the future as a consequence of the rapidly changing patterns of agriculture.

Plant Biodiversity and Genetic Resources
2022Located at the intersection of three phytogeographical regions, namely Europe-Siberia, Iran-Turanian and Mediterranean, Turkey has a very rich plant biodiversity. In addition, Thrace-Aegean, South-East Anatolia, Samsun-Tokat-Amasya, Kayseri and its vicinity and Ağrı are home to many fruits, vegetables and field crops in micro gene centers.

Plant genetic resources and policy
Trends in Biotechnology, 1988Abstract Genetic engineering will allow the introduction of new genes and novel qualities into crops, thereby extending genetic diversity. However, seed development and bulking through anther and pollen culture will tend to reduce variability. Infrastructural developments, such as the acquisition of small seed companies by large corporations, the ...
